Why does it feel that we are always a man short while attacking and defending against so called bus parking teams.

{Ed025's Note - i think you mean counter attacking sides mate, like liverpool do against the top teams..

We're just better counter attackers than the parked buses, Ed. You got to give us credit for that, at least.

{Ed025's Note - you are very good at it bingo, but dont disrespect other teams for doing similar just because they dont have players of liverpools quality mate..

Chelsea and Leicester both won the league by being counter attacking teams.

{Ed025's Note - yes its a very effective brand of football mate..

Chelsea with the money they've spent over the years shouldn't have to be playing counter attacking football.

I will never knock a team for playing a certain way, Ed25. That is cowardly. It is the job of our manager to figure it out, not the job of the other team to play the way we want them to play. It is what Wenger and Mou doe all the time when teams stifle them hence, Wenger is the pathetic manager he has now become and Mou has become a boring whinger as well, as nothing is ever their fault.

I've never seen us park the bus like Burnley did since Rafa left Ed. Yes we aren't as advanced against the top teams but we still press high. The reason we do so well is the fact that they have more of the ball so we get more opportunities to nick it higher up the pitch and then break. If we were to get 9 men across the 18 yard box like Burnley did we'd get beat every time because none of the 9 would have a clue how to defend!

ed is poking the bears here I think guys! we may score many goals on the counter, but that is an outcome from a totally different means of creating those chances compared to how other defensive teams set up. yes they're both counter-attacking, but we set up to attack through our counter.

whereas other teams, set up to contain and hope like hell they can pinch a goal on the counter to squeeze a result. that is totally different and deserves to be treated us such.
